✨ What Makes The Belvedere Box Special

Perched on one of the most scenic points of Lookout Mountain, The Belvedere Box is designed to immerse you fully in the surrounding landscape. The signature bed swing overlooking the valley creates a truly unforgettable vantage point for morning coffee, afternoon rest, or sunset watching.

With only 160 square feet, the space is intentionally minimal yet thoughtfully designed to include everything needed for a comfortable stay—inviting guests to focus less on distractions and more on experience, connection, and the natural beauty outside every window.

The Belvedere Box was exactly what my husband and I needed before picking up our son from camp—peaceful, cozy, and with stunning views. The perfect place to unplug and recharge. We’d absolutely stay again!

We had a wonderful stay! The view was amazing and we enjoyed hanging out on the front porch! We grilled steaks, but did pop into Cafe 136 down the road for breakfast. We also had an app and drink at Canyon Grill before our steak dinner back at the tiny home. I think this tiny home is the most private of three on this property. All look amazing though and I’d return to stay in any of them! Such a fun experience!

Great location

Our time here was so great, the views were AMAZING! The space is small, but for 2 people for two nights it was perfectly fine, plus we spent most of our time on the patio soaking in the views on the swing. We will be back!

***important money saving information*** go to their site directly at https://wanderchatt.com/ and book, you don't have to pay $22 to vrbo fees. I wish i knew when i booked it. Bed sheets seemed clean but had some spots that were questionable. Swing cushion on the porch should be washed/cleaned in my opinion but other than that no complaints. Great place with awesome view. Sunset is a must.

It's a unique place. Pros: The view, the porch and our time at the firepit were the highlights. A hanglider came by as we were admiring the view and enjoying the firepit. We actually met years ago while skydiving so it was awesome for us watching this.Cons: Keep in mind it's very small. There's no closet or place to hang anything other than a towel in the bathroom. There is an odor like mildew or musk. They're aware as there is a wonderfully scented candle inside and a spray for the air. It wasn't enough but we got used to it. I think housekeeping may have left the door open to air while it was being cleaned before we got there as there were bugs inside. We didn't realize how many until the sun went down and we had lights on. We slept with the bathroom light on and door cracked and that attracted the bugs away from the bed. They were mostly stink bugs which I think are seasonal, not sure. I think I would book one of the larger container properties next time, this was the smallest and about half a container. You can't beat the view! Oh, and the smores kit in the cabin was a cute touch. Also they have wood cut and stacked there for the firepit.

Thanks so much for the positive detailed review. I’m so glad you enjoyed the amazing view and s’mores kit! This is a full 20 ft tiny shipping container home and is designed for short stays like your 1 night stay. I wasn’t aware of any odor and we have the Tyler candle company linen spray and scented candles in all of our 12 locations as guests love them. We do have extermination but stink bugs can be seasonal this time of year on the mountain and I will reach out to the exterminator as well. Thanks so much for the feedback
